DIY {New Year Banner}

Are you ready to welcome the new year? As much as I truly enjoyed the holidays and want to savor those sweet memories forever, I know there are wonderful new memories to be made in the new year. For instance, in January, I’m looking forward to meeting those of you who are going to Blissdom and my son will turn 1 (really, already?!) in March.

So, let's kick off the new year with a little DIY banner!

Here’s how I made it with my handy dandy Silhouette machine.

Et Voila!

p.s. Did you spy the three books sitting politely at the corner of my desk? They were a Christmas gift to me from one of my best girlfriends, Karen. She really knew I would love these books and I do! Thank GOD for GIRFRIENDS!!! :)

The deadline to enter the Silhouette Giveaway is Friday, December 31, 2010 at midnight central time. The winner will be announced on Saturday, January 1, 2011.

Love it! and what a great friend, those books are fabulous! Happy New Years, my friend!! I too am in shock my little man is soon to be one in February. On my to do list is to order invites for his birthday party after New Years! Where did the past year go? xoxo

Nicely done, friend!!! Great tutorial too. What is spray adhesive? I think I need that. What an exciting year with James turning one {wow!}. And I also spy a very adorable cup housing your markers. Super cute.

The banner is so cute. Since I am new to blogging I am really Blessed that Blissdom is held in Nashville since that is where we live! We are really excited about going.I wasn't sure if they would have the Opryland Hotel ready in time but they do and they have made some awesome changes! It looks even more beautiful.
